Use a Bluetooth enabled printer

If your Mac came with Bluetooth installed, or you are using a USB Bluetooth adapter, you can print wirelessly to a Bluetooth enabled printer.

  1. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Printers & Scanners.
  2. Click Add (+), then click Default.
  3. Select the printer in the Printers list, then click Add. If the printer you expect to see is not in the list, enter its name in the search field, then press Return.

    If your printer doesn’t appear in the list, make sure you have the latest Bluetooth driver for the printer installed. Check with the manufacturer for the latest driver.

Once you set up your printer, you can choose it in the Print dialog when you’re ready to print.
